Nexus 7

The Play Store is stocking 16 GB and 32 GB Wifi-only models for $249 and $299 respectively, with shipping charges of $19.99. As yet, Google are not offering the 3G models in Australia via the Play Store just yet but retailers have advised they have it on order.Google Play | 16 GB – $249, 32 GB – $299

The Nexus 7 is the most ubiquitous of the Nexus line. You’d be hard pressed to find an electronics store that doesn’t sell it these days, and some of the prices are quite competitive. Update: most of the big stores have no stock in their physical shops. Yesterday, none of the Officeworks or JB Hi-Fi stores in Melbourne CBD had stock.

Dick Smith Electronics

We previously posted that Dick Smith would be selling the 3G model, and they’re still the only retailer that we know of. The 32 GB model with 3G will cost $399, and the Wifi-only version will cost $319. Update 04/12: Dick Smith are now selling the 32 GB for $299.

At this stage, JB Hi-Fi are only selling the 16 GB Wi-Fi model of the Nexus 7, and it’s retailing for $267 with free shipping to anywhere in Australia, or in-store pick-up. They have not yet announced availability for the 32 GB model.

Officeworks

Officeworks have told us that they will be selling the 32 GB Wifi-only model for $319, and it should be in stock around November 12. The 8 GB and 16 GB models are listed as out of stock on their website, but some stores still have limited stock. If you’re interested in one of the smaller models, you’d be best ringing or visiting your closest store for more information. It’s worth noting that this is the same price as you’d pay from the Play Store plus delivery, but you get the benefit of having the device immediately.Officeworks | 32 GB – $319

PLE

Currently have the 16 GB in stock for $269, and are expecting the 32 GB to arrive on 13/11 to be sold for $319.

Nexus 10

As far as we’re aware, the only place you can buy the Nexus 10 at this stage is from the Play Store directly. Google are selling the Wifi-only device with 16 GB for $469, and 32 GB for $569. Shipping will cost $19.99 and take 3-5 days.Google Play | 16 GB – $469, 32 GB – $569

Man, when is the Nexus 10 32 GB going to be available? Google store has been out since before Christmas. And the regular retails like JB, Good Guys, Norman are all clueless on estimated arrival.

Just received the following from Kogan (21 Dec): Due to global shortage in supply of the Google Nexus 7 (32GB, 3G) that you have purchased, we unable to fulfill your order for this product. Your refund will be issued within 24 – 48 hours.

Went to Good Guys today and they are expecting the 3G Nexus 7 to land tomorrow. They’ll also do it for $384 if you pay “cash”

which store? I had bought online and was in contact with them, but they said that unfortunately it will arrive in mid-late December. Therefore, I had to cancel my order because I’m going overseas on the Dec 8.

Do you trust Mobicity? I called them before purchasing to get a confirmation that the could actually deliver and the couldn’t guarantee. go and read some reviews…there are many cases where they have somehting ‘in stock” but in fact don’t and custumers had to wait long time to receive their orders

I can’t comment on trust given I’ve never bought anything from there.

Their model of business for Nexus products (probably others as well) is similar with Kogan. The stock will come from overseas (likely Hong Kong). And you will be essentially buying a Hong Kong version of the product (nothing wrong with that). But, when it comes to warranty, the local manufacturer may not recognise and likely needs to be shipped to Hong Kong. An extended wait for warranty work is likely, then.

Apparently they did go on-sale but only very briefly, I missed out on one, hope to get one when they come back into stock. Anyone got a bumper they want to sell?

i managed to purchase one about 2 hours after i bought the N4. still waiting for delivery of the bumper though. my n4 has been tendered for local delivery so should receive that tomorrow. had no status update for bumper yet even though they took my money…

I’d be keen to know what time the Nexus 4 and 10 will start selling on the Play Store.

Just bought the Nexus 7 16GB from Harvey Norman (Thomastown) for $250. They had plenty of stock and they didn’t refuse my offer. JB wouldn’t even budge under $255 and that’s after telling them that HN had it for $257.

I really want to know if the Nexus 10 will be available on or around the Play Store release date. Itching to buy one, but I don’t want to buy one + postage and find out that it’s available $50 cheaper 2 days later at JB.
